R Ashwin 'cut calls, didn't reply to messages for 100th Test': Laxman Sivaramakrishnan throws mountain of allegations

Hindustan Times  

Former India spinner Laxman Sivaramakrishnan has levelled allegations on Ravichandran Ashwin, accusing the spinner of ignoring him ahead of the landmark 100th Test for the country. Sivaramakrishnan, in a post on X, wrote that Ashwin disconnected his calls and ignored his text messages – technically ghosting him – as he tried conveying his wishes to the off-spinner on the momentous occasion. Sivaramakrishnan's reactions led to a barrage of trolling from online users, some bringing out his scathing attack on Ashwin back in October last year when he wrote "any fool will get wickets on tempered pitches in India" and threw controversial terms at Ashwin, such as calling him a 'liability fielder' and 'most unfit cricketer'. Ashwin third India spinner to play 100 Tests When he takes the field on Thursday against England at the HPCA Stadium in Dharamsala, Ashwin will become the 14th Indian cricketer and only the third spinner behind Anil Kumble and Harbhajan Singh to play 100 Tests for India.
